Which cold air intake should I buy?

Hey Guys,

I was curious if anyone could give me information on which cold air intake to buy. I currently have a K&N air filter but would like a little more power and fuel efficiency. I'm sure you're wondering why i don't just get a K&N, this is because i called up my local part place (they normally have good deals) and, in CAD, it's going to cost me $365, i was expecting something more in the 250-300 range as we bought my Dad a K&N CAI a while back for his Yukon at $270.

Any suggestions with good brands or online manufacer that doesn't charge an arm and a leg to ship to Canada.

Thanks alot.

EDIT: Also if you can provide me with the warranty on it too that'd be awesum.

seriously.... make your own.


get a good filter and tubing that is the same size as your t/b and make your own. I've seen PVC CAI's on 400hp cars.
